The PFKFB4 gene encodes isoenzyme of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase (PFKFB or PFK-2/FBPase-2) which originally was found in the testes. We have studied hypoxic regulation of… (More)

Previously we have shown that hypoxia strongly induces the expression of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase-3 and -4 (PFKFB-3 and PFKFB-4) genes in several cancer cell lines via a… (More)

Recently, we have shown that PFKFB4 gene which encodes the testis isoenzyme of PFKFB is also expressed in the prostate and hepatoma cancer cell lines. Here we have studied expression and hypoxic… (More)

OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to examine the association between the expression of insulin-like growth binding protein-1 and -2 (IGFBP1 and IGFBP2), insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA… (More)

The 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFKFB) is responsible for maintaining the cellular levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate which is a key regulator of glycolysis. Here we have… (More)

OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling mediated by IRE1/ERN1 (inositol-requiring enzyme 1/endoplasmic reticulum… (More)

The development of obesity and its metabolic complications is associated with dysregulation of various intrinsic mechanisms, which control basic metabolic processes via changes in the expression of… (More)

We have studied the effect of hypoxia on the expression of nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial proteins in U87 glioma cells under the inhibition of IRE1 (inositol requiring enzyme-1), which controls… (More)
